LL&E ROYALTY TRUST

JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. - TRUSTEE                    NEWS
                                                      RELEASE


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

AUSTIN, TEXAS (January 27, 2006) -- LL&E Royalty Trust (NYSE SYMBOL-LRT)
announced today there will be no Trust income distribution for the month of
February 2006 for Unitholders of record on February 6, 2006. This release
relates to production for the month of November 2005.

As more fully described in the Trust's periodic reports filed with the SEC, the
Trust Agreement and the related Partnership Agreement provide that, under
certain circumstances, the Trustee may establish cash contingency reserves for
the payment of claims that are likely to be asserted against the Trust. With
certain exceptions, any such reserves are required to be deposited in
non-interest bearing accounts.

As more fully described in the Trust's press release issued January 20, 2006, it
appears highly likely that distributions to the Trust will be reduced
significantly for a period of time as a result of the damage from Hurricanes
Katrina and Rita to production facilities for properties in which the Trust has
an interest. In light of this, the Trustee determined to reserve an additional
$152,103, before Trust expenses, that would have otherwise been distributed to
the unitholders on February 6, 2006 for the payment of the Trust's likely
general and administrative expenses in the foreseeable future. As of January 27,
2006 the cumulative reserve amount is $735,367. The Trustee intends to release
all or a portion of the reserved funds, to the extent they are no longer
necessary, as soon as the effects of the storm damage on the production
facilities and the resulting effects on revenues to the Trust from the affected
properties become reasonably certain.

The Working Interest Owner ("Owner"), under the terms of the Trust Conveyance,
is permitted to escrow funds up to 125% of the estimated future costs such as
dismantlement costs and capital expenditures for the properties in which the
Trust has an interest (Special Cost Escrow). As more fully described in the
Trust's press release issued January 20, 2006, the actual amounts of certain of
these costs, including those affecting East Cameron 195, which is included in
the Offshore Louisiana properties, appear likely to be substantially increased
over those previously estimated as a result of damage caused by the 2005
hurricanes.

The $152,103 that the Trustee is reserving for the month of November includes no
proceeds from the Jay Field or South Pass properties due to excess production
costs. Excess production costs to be recouped from future proceeds at the Jay
Field and South Pass properties totaled $2,185,860 and $181,597 respectively.

Gross Proceeds prior to deductions for Production Costs for the month of
November 2005 by property are as follows: $1,998,708 for Jay Field property, $0
for South Pass 89 property, and $314,243 for Offshore Louisiana property.

Production Costs for the month of November 2005 by property are as follows:
$4,184,568 for Jay Field property, $181,597 for South Pass 89 property and
$194,157 for Offshore Louisiana property.

There was no deduction made for the Special Cost Escrow in November 2005. Fee
Lands Royalties for the month of November 2005 totaled $44,026. Trust related
expenses for the month of November 2005 totaled $100,027.

The Gross Proceeds, Production Costs and Special Cost Escrow numbers stated
above relate to each property as a whole. The Trust's interest in these
properties is 50% for Jay Field, 50% for South Pass 89 and 90% for Offshore
Louisiana.

The extent of future distributions from the properties in which the Trust has an
interest will continue to be dependent on normal factors associated with oil and
gas operations such as oil and gas production levels, prices and associated
cost, timing and extent of capital expenditures. In addition, the amount of
future distributions will depend on the amounts escrowed by the Working Interest
Owner as described above.
